An update on our European Climate Pact Pledge

An update on our European Climate Pact Pledge

In July 2021 Change by Degrees submitted a European Climate Pact Pledge to the European Union. Change by Degrees is proud to be an EU Climate Pact Ambassador and to report on its progress towards the targets set out in its pledge.

Our pledge made in July 2021 as follows:

Change by Degrees pledges to accelerate progress towards the SDGs and the goals of the Paris Agreement by supporting its clients through education and partnership to increase the ambition, impact and transparency of their climate and sustainability actions. Our mission is to provide sustainability leadership and inspiration. The organisations we work with are thriving, purpose driven and sustainable. Together we are creating positive change throughout society.

Under SDG 4 QUALITY EDUCATION: Our goal is to increase sustainability knowledge and capability in organisations in direct response to SDG 4. We will track our progress towards this goal by measuring the number of i) client employees that have directly experienced CbD training; and ii) client employees participating in our employee engagement campaigns

Under SDG 17 PARTNERSHIPS: Our goal is to influence and equip organisations to change behaviour and work collectively to contribute to a sustainable society, in direct response to SDG 17. We will track our progress towards this goal by measuring the number of i) client employees taking sustainable actions; and ii) client organisations taking sustainability actions

Reporting on our progress has been a learning exercise, especially as our systems for impact measurement mature as we grow.

We can provide the following progress metrics and will continue to refine our pledge and our metrics in the coming year.
